Our current work aims to use Event-B and the Rodin tools to support the specification and design of such systems in a way that integrates well into existing development processes. This paper presents Event-B patterns that may be used to represent recovery from timebounded inconsistency and illustrates their use in a model derived from industrial applications. date: 2010 date_type: published publisher: IEEE Computer Society refereed: TRUE book_title: 15th IEEE International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems.
